The Science Behind Exion Facial RF Ultrasound
Exion Facial RF Ultrasound is a revolutionary multi-platform device for skin rejuvenation. Using a variety of treatment modalities, Exion Facial RF Ultrasound can address everything from excess pigmentation to sagging skin.
As it pertains to acne scars, the Exion Facial RF Ultrasound Microneedling handpiece delivers radiofrequency energy to the deepest layers of skin to encourage collagen production.
Known as the body’s primary protein building block, collagen provides the skin with structure and support. Increased collagen helps heal acne scarring, especially skin-texture irregularities left behind from atrophic scars.
The Exion Facial RF Ultrasound Clear RF applicator works best for treating post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, or portions of darkened skin that remain after a blemish has healed. Clear RF uses superficial monopolar microablation, which gently resurfaces the top layers of skin to create a more even tone.
What to Expect From Treatment
Before jumping into treatment, you first schedule a consultation with a Lume licensed nurse or esthetician. They talk with you to learn more about your acne goals and treatment needs.
If they decide that Exion Facial RF Ultrasound can effectively treat your acne scars, they run through a detailed guide of pre-care instructions to prepare you for treatment.
On the day of your Exion Facial RF Ultrasound session, your provider cleanses your skin and applies a topical anesthetic to keep you comfortable. Then, they glide the Exion Facial RF Ultrasound device over your acne scars, increasing collagen and minimizing skin texture as they go. You may feel a gentle warming or prickling sensation during your 30-minute appointment.

Most guests start seeing clearer skin and noticeable acne scar improvements within a few weeks of their first treatment.
Our experts recommend undergoing at least 4 to 6 Exion Facial RF Ultrasound treatment sessions for optimal results. Many of our guests also choose to schedule regular maintenance appointments after completing their treatment plan to continue enhancing their skin quality.
